Kalmar has an airport with daily connections to Stockholm through SAS, Skyways and Swe Fly. Direct trains are also available to Stockholm, Gothenburg and Malmö. The Öland Bridge is six km/3.6 miles long, goes from Kalmar to Färjestaden on Öland, and is the obvious choice for the majority of travelers. Riding a bike on the bridge is risky business and even illegal in the summer. If you want to take a bike over, there’s a free bus ride available for transport. Ask at the tourist office for this service. If you still prefer a ferry, there’s a route between Oskarshamn and Byxelkrok in northern Öland. For a one-day excursion, a car is convenient, but buses leave frequently from Kalmar in the summer. From Stockholm, Silverlinjen is a bus company that takes you to Öland via Kalmar year-round.
